Hurricane Warning!!

Since this is a blog about running I think it is necessary that I am upfront in saying I have not ran since the last time I wrote. How’s that for honesty! 

Today is the last day for the first round of Blog Idol and I find myself in the middle of a Hurricane!  A moving hurricane!  I have spent the last week sleeping very little, packing a ton and raiding any cardboard dumpster for boxes!  FYI-Tim Hortons and Sportchek have the best supply, followed by Chapters and DQ.  At this point we are in what I would consider to be the eye of the moving Hurricane.  You know the point where the strong winds and rain take a bit of a break.  The movers have come and gone, my wife and kids are visiting Grandparents and things are very, very quiet in my empty house.  Too quiet.  (It’s kind of like running without music.  You can here yourself think and breath and that is not always good!)  So now I clean and clean and clean for the next day or so and then we wait……..wait until our new place is done and the outer wall of the eye begins and we enter right back into the moving Hurricane!

During this waiting period I hope to accomplish a number of things, one is running way more then never and two is to catch up on some sleep.  That is if I can get the sound of packing tape being wrapped around boxes out of my head!

If I am successful in getting through to the next round I will be sure to have way more entries about actual running and my adventures on my journey to complete a full marathon in the fall!
